Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 1308

May 8, 1939!

1,200 meters outside Panzhai Village, Guangping County, Handan City!

Standing on the top of the mountain, Captain Matsukita Yuki looked through the telescope at the quiet and peaceful mountain village with smoke curling up from the cooking pots, with a sinister smile on his face!

That is not the joy of the wolf when he sees the sheep, it is the pleasure that comes from destroying beautiful things.

Perhaps only Matsukita Yuki knows what kind of mission he is going to perform.

That was the "War of Ember" that the division commander personally summoned and ordered. The goal of his trip was not to eliminate those "Tuba", but to completely remove this large mountain village with a population of 1,000 from this land. erase.

Although this is a bit cruel, Matsukita Yuki believes that it is necessary!

The Chinese are stubborn to the point of stupidity. The empire has occupied this land in North China for more than a year, but its scope of activities is mostly limited to cities, and it has not achieved effective control over a vast enough countryside. This has also led to more and more secretive resistance from the Chinese people underground. frequently.

Especially in recent months, with the continuous losses on the front line, the Chinese have become even more arrogant and have continued to massacre those "insightful people" who leaned towards the empire, causing the imperial generals stationed in the city to turn a blind eye to the situation in the countryside.

This is a provocation to the front army and even the empire!

Finally, the new commander made the most brutal and effective counterattack. It was time to let the Chinese know the consequences of disobedience.

Matsukita Yuki is not worried at all about what kind of "Tuba" he will encounter. As the deputy captain of the 1st Infantry Battalion of the 10th Division's 63rd Infantry Regiment and the captain of the 1st Squadron, Matsukita Yuki leads two men this time. An infantry squadron plus an infantry artillery squad with nearly 500 troops came to sweep a village like Panzhai. Even with such strength, he didn't bother to lead those dirty and stupid security forces.

Even though Panzhai is 12 kilometers away from Guangping County, Songbei Yuki led his men to march all the way and arrived in less than 3 hours.

Looking at the smoke rising from the cooking fires in the village, the Chinese never dreamed that a large army was approaching the village entrance.

Matsukita Yuki has even thought about it. He will lead his team into the village and order the Chinese villagers to stand in front of his machine guns as usual. The Chinese will definitely obey like sheep. What they may not expect is that this time there will be no What to ask and contribute to the empire.

　What will greet them is only ruthless killing. No matter men, women, old or young, they will be mercilessly killed, and then thrown into the house that once gave them warmth, and burned to death, as if they had never appeared in this world.

Yuki Matsukita, who was born in a family of butchers, felt inexplicably excited when he thought that thousands of Chinese people would be splattered with blood and flesh under his orders.

“Order the Shuigu Squadron to enter the mountain road at the entrance of the village first and be responsible for reconnaissance for Tuba. The Songbei Squadron will cover the rear of the infantry artillery team and follow up. Tell everyone that once they pass the mountain road, they must march quickly and must not let a Chinese escape into the mountains!

Order all squads and detachments to kill anyone who dares to resist, regardless of age or sex! "Matsubei Yuki put down the telescope and coldly issued a military order.

As the military order was issued, a 15-member Japanese army team took the lead to walk out of the jungle and enter the loess road that could pass large vehicles, followed by groups of Japanese soldiers.

There was no other sound except the sound of some heavy leather boots stepping on some dry hard soil.

Most of the faces of the Japanese soldiers were dull and stiff. Perhaps they were a little tired after marching 12 kilometers, or perhaps it was due to their national personality, but there was excitement in their eyes that could not be concealed.

This kind of "hunting" is not the first time for the soldiers of the 10th Division, and they will gain something every time.

Although Chinese women will smear their faces with ashes to be dirty before they come, but compared with releasing their desires, what is that?

Especially seeing their fathers and husbands kneeling and wailing in despair under the bayonet but unable to resist, it couldn't be more exciting.

In contrast, the mountain villages are still peaceful and the smoke still pours out stubbornly. It seems that the mountains and forests have blocked the uncontrollable murderous intention and ambition of the nearly 500 Japanese troops.

Chuan Zi hid in the grass less than 400 meters away from the Japanese army, not daring to come out, and watched the groups of Japanese soldiers march towards Panzhai less than a mile away with murderous intent.

Yes, Kawako finally joined the army. After passing the assessment half a year ago, he finally became a formal soldier of the 683rd Brigade from the militia.

However, Chuanzi did not go to the 772th Regiment, the main regiment with Brother Li, but was assigned to the independent regiment, and followed Deputy Brigadier Chen to Jinan a month later.

After half a year of development, the independent regiment has grown from less than a thousand people at the beginning to nearly 10,000 people now. Kawako, who was still a recruit, actually became the squad leader, with 12 soldiers under his command.

Even he, the oldest soldier in the army, only had six and a half months of experience, and his weapons were all kinds of. Except for him, the squad leader, who held a Hanyang-made weapon, the others were either blunderbuss or simply spears.

Kawako was very dissatisfied with the combat effectiveness of his squad, but he knew that the old squad leader and the current platoon leader could not do anything about it. After doing mass work, there were too many young people joining the army. There were 8 squads in his platoon with more than 100 people, but the rifle There are only 26 guns in total.

To ensure combat effectiveness, rifles are basically assigned to the top three infantry squads. As a squad leader who is a recruit himself and leads a group of recruits, it would be good to have a standard rifle.

The combat effectiveness was so weak that his infantry company fought several battles with the Japanese and puppet troops in the past two or three months. Kawako and his infantry squad appeared as reserves.

Due to the extremely strong fighting power of the Japanese army, several attacks organized by the infantry company were unable to defeat its defense line. In addition, the Japanese reinforcements arrived very quickly, and the 8th squadron led by Kawako had no chance to fight.

It wasn't until one month after the year that the four-pronged regiment led by the magical army colonel actually came here.

The people who came to Guangping County were the 2nd Company of the 1st Battalion of the Sixing Regiment. The company commander was Wei Donglai, a soldier with a somewhat bookish but handsome appearance.

The Four Lines Regiment is a friendly force, and they have a very good relationship with them. Kawako really wants to go up and build a relationship, maybe he can get some assistance from the friendly forces. After all, he is the person who carried their captain Tang, but it is a pity that his squad leader is far away from them. The company commander was too far away to find a chance to talk to him.

Unexpectedly, after the meeting between the Dalian Company Commander of the Si Xing Regiment and the Guangping Division Captain, who had the highest military rank in Guangping County, the support materials were distributed.

But what Kawako didn't expect was that what was handed out was not the legendary firearms and ammunition, but shovels, pickaxes and other digging tools. If anything had anything to do with the war, it could only be those so-called The mines are lumpy.

According to the order conveyed by the superior commander, the Guangping Division suspended all other activities. The entire army mobilized the public to cooperate with the Fourth Army Regiment to dig tunnels in villages in the plains, and a large number of landmines were laid in mountainous villages to form minefields.

He has never been able to fight, and Kawako is unwilling to plan the soil pit.

This is not only the most populous mountain village in Guangping County, but also one of the important base areas in Guangping County.

In this village alone, more than 160 young men joined the army, and the aunts worked day and night to make cloth shoes for the officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment. Within a few months, thousands of pairs were made and given to the army.

Even if the warm cloth shoes are not worn on the feet, just carrying them on the body makes running feel much more powerful.

However, Panzhai Village is a mountain village and does not require a lot of manpower to dig tunnels like plain villages, so the infantry squad Chuanzi was sent to accompany the 3rd Squadron, 2nd Company, 1st Battalion of the Sixing Regiment to assist the villagers in laying mines.

Landmine laying is also a technical job, especially the little soldier named Tudou who taught everyone about pressing mines, tripping mines, pulling mines, and chain-letter mines. Just hearing the names can make people dizzy. People in Panzhai Village Even more confused!

Fortunately, the old squad leader of the Four Lines Regiment, nicknamed Lao Abacus, was very patient. He not only held a training class for Kawako, the recruits in his squad, and the anti-Japanese activists in the village, but also taught them how to use landmines correctly. Lay mines in the area.

After spending more than half a month, the villagers in Panzhai finally learned how to lay these landmines!

That is not just a technical job, it also involves some psychology!

For example, if the Japanese stepped on a landmine, where would they hide and how would they get around the mountains?

With this coming and going, another month has passed!

　　Nearly 400 landmines were planted on the mountain road entering Panzhai Village and in the surrounding mountains and forests by soldiers and villagers. Each minefield was marked with marks that only soldiers and villagers knew.

You don't have to remember anything else, but if you don't remember this mark, it will be fatal.

A large wild boar weighing more than 200 kilograms ran down from the old forest at night. It probably wanted to come to the Huohuo cornfield, but unfortunately it stepped on a landmine.

The pig skin, which even a cannon could not penetrate, was riddled with holes, and the two large pig trotters were blown ten meters away. In the end, Kawako led the two soldiers to carefully pass through the minefield he had laid. , took this unfortunate guy out and gave it to the whole village as a tooth sacrifice. If the Japanese dare to come now, they will definitely look good. Kawako was quite confident before yesterday.

But I didn't expect that the Japanese really came.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the message tree at the mountain pass fell down. It was done by the Panzhai village soldiers who were responsible for the lookout at the mountain pass.

After the arrival of the Four Troops, each village and township had militiamen on duty 24 hours a day. If nothing else, they were responsible for watching whether any Japanese troops were passing through.

As soon as the news tree falls, the whole village must prepare for battle.

Kawako couldn't help but feel a little excited, but when the sharpshooter from Class 3 came back with the reconnaissance report, Kawako calmed down instantly.

The number of Japanese troops who arrived was in the hundreds.

The most important thing to do at this time is to call on the villagers to evacuate, and the right way is to use the laid minefields to delay the Japanese troops until they all hide in the mountains.

Unexpectedly, Lao Abacus, the first commander of Panzhai, ordered the whole village not to cause chaos and continue cooking, while the two infantry squads and the entire militia entered the combat area.

Kawako could only take his infantry squad and run to the battle position that the old abacus squad leader had designated for his infantry squad.

What makes Kawako so obedient is that Lao Abacus is a veteran of seven or eight years in the army, and secondly, it is Lao Abacus's generosity.

Seeing that Kawako's infantry squad was so miserable, with only one Hanyang-made gun and five or six good bird-killing guns, he made a special report to the company and asked for 8 Liao-made Thirteen rifles plus one for the friendly forces. It's a Czech light machine gun.

This made Kawako so excited that he cried. If he hadn't considered that there were a group of subordinates present, he would have called Uncle Abacus.

“Hehe, don't thank me. If you want to thank me, just thank you for carrying our regimental commander for more than ten miles through the mountains. If your son hadn't mentioned this, we wouldn't have known that your son was so naughty!

Hahaha, when I think about the fact that such a fierce guy like our regimental commander is **** like a wild boar by you, what the Japanese didn't do, but you did, so go for it, you have to give me this gun no matter what. "Lao Abacus and Tudou laughed so hard that their teeth dropped.

"Hehe, Chief Tang said, you won't get to know each other without fighting, you will get to know each other only after fighting. Now I don't dare." At that time, Chuan Zi only knew how to rub his head in glee.

However, when the Japanese actually showed up, Kawako realized that his understanding of Captain Tang was still too superficial.

What kind of person can lead such a group of soldiers?

The Japanese came not with thirty or fifty people, but three to five hundred people. However, including them and the militiamen carrying spears in the stockade, there were only less than 60 people in full force.

The regular army only has 27 people!

　What can we use to fight the Japanese?

Chuanzi is no longer the ignorant and fearless acting squad leader of the small militia that Tang Dao met a year ago. Although he has not officially set foot on the front line of the battlefield in the past year, he is also someone who has witnessed several battlefields with his own eyes.

Know when to fight and when not to fight.

This was the first time in his life that he had seen such a large number of Japanese troops. I am afraid that even if the main divisional troops came, they would not be able to defeat them.

It can only be seen whether the landmines that took more than a month to lay can stop the Japanese army. Although Kawako was still a little scared in his heart, he still firmly held the Hanyang made in his hand.

He has always kept in mind what the magical colonel told him: "Never drop your weapons at any time!"

Kawako's eyes were fixed on the stout Japanese commander Cao at the front of the platoon. The sun flag hanging on his rifle clearly revealed his identity.

On the side of the road less than five meters in front of the Japanese commander, there is a very conspicuous rotten wooden pile. This is very common in the mountains, but here, it is a sign, marking this section of the mountain road as a minefield.

On the mountain roads composed of loess, the buried is basically thunder!

The kind of small infantry mine that explodes when someone steps on it is not very powerful, but it is enough to blow off a person's legs.

“Boom!” There was a loud noise.

There was a burst of gunpowder smoke, followed by a heart-rending scream!

Just as Kawako thought, the Japanese military commander stepped on a landmine. Landmines whose main purpose is not to kill people are very insidious. From a distance, the Japanese military commander's entire body was shortened by a large amount.

Of the two legs, one flew into the grass and the other was on the mountain road five or six meters away. Dark red blood flowed out. From a distance, it looked like an exclamation mark!

"Baga! There are landmines!" After the loud bang, the Japanese army was very experienced in judging what was attacking their own side.

But what made Kawako a little disappointed was that the Japanese army was much smarter than he thought. After encountering the mine attack, although they were all lying on the ground, few of them immediately rolled into the grass!

In this minefield, the ones on the mountain road are only for deterrence, but the real killing moves are in the grass and hillsides on both sides of the mountain road.

Kawako couldn't help but cast his gaze more than 300 meters away. Where was the old abacus? If he fired at this time, would there be a chance to force the Japanese troops on the mountain road into the minefield?

But obviously, the veteran was much more calm than him, and there was no movement at all behind the bushes.

It was so quiet that it was disconcerting. If it hadn't been for the soldiers of the Four Lines Regiment, Kawako would have thought that the friendly troops had fled long ago.

“The Chinese actually used standard infantry mines?” Matsukita Yuki frowned after receiving the news from the front.

After their 10th Division arrived in southern Hebei, the local garrison reminded them that the Chinese in the villages seemed to be alert, and their activities became more frequent. They also launched brutal assassinations of people who had surrendered to the empire, which resulted in them being able to escape from the villages. Less and less information is available.

It was like a thick layer of fog covering the eyes of the imperial army!

Now, even standard landmines have appeared.

Soon, the sergeant whose two stumpy legs were bandaged but who had lost a lot of blood and entered a coma was carried to Matsukita Yuki.

Matsukita Yuki, who has enough battlefield experience, knows that it is very difficult for the sergeant to survive. Not to mention the massive blood loss, even the wound infection after two or three days will kill him, unless there is the legendary expensive such as Jin's antibiotic drugs, keeping Sergeant alive, will only be a waste of manpower and drugs.

But even if he knew it, Matsukita Yuki could only order a few soldiers to carry this "sooner or later death"!

"The Chinese will not have so many landmines placed in areas with no strategic significance like the countryside. We ordered the front to continue moving forward. The Chinese have been alarmed. We must speed up!" Matsukita Yuki made a decision that he regretted , a decision that the bottom Japanese infantry hated extremely much.

Knowing that there are mines and no metal detectors, who is walking in front, who is the human flesh detector. Even if it is a Japanese army who has been completely brainwashed completely, does not want to be killed in vain?

Especially when there is a sergeant who has grown to 1 meter in height and is in front of everyone!

Unfortunately, military orders were hard to disobey, so the Japanese troops kept their distance. The two Japanese soldiers fearfully walked at the front one after another and continued to advance along the mountain road.

Not ten meters away, there was another loud bang, and another Japanese soldier was lying on the ground struggling for his life like a landed fish!

However, his luck should be better than that of the sergeant. A marble should have penetrated into his lower abdomen from his perineum. Although the severe pain caused the Japanese superior soldier to become incontinent instantly, the smell was so bad that even gunpowder smoke Neither of them could be covered, but the combination of cruel trauma and damage to internal organs caused the Japanese soldier to gradually stop breathing after a minute.

Death can also be happy sometimes!

"Baga! Send people to clear mines! Order Mizutani Squadron to bypass the mountain road and climb over the hillside to enter! Songbei Squadron is on standby!" Songbei Yuki gave the order with some anger.

Within two minutes, 'Boom! boom! boom! ' The explosion made Matsukita Yuki's eyelids twitch a few hundred meters away.

His worst fears happened.

The Chinese actually laid a minefield here, and the Key Shuigu Squadron entered under his military order. (End of chapter)
